Background technology
The energy is the basis that modern society depends on for existence and development, and the supply capacity substantial connection of the energy the sustainable development of national economy, is one of Strategic Foundation of national security guarantee.Because rapid development of economy causes traditional non-renewable fossil fuel equal energy source to be increasingly in an emergency, countries nowadays government all places hope on the emerging energies such as Hydrogen Energy, solar energy, wind energy, but because these novel energies exist very significant time unsteadiness, thus limit the exploitation of these novel energies.In addition, because causing electrical network electric power when peak of power consumption not enough by the imbalance of power mode, and power surplus during low power consumption, also have impact on making full use of of the existing energy.Because the urgent need of effective utilization of new exploitation of energy resources and traditional energy, the exploitation of technology that countries nowadays is all devoted to " peak load shifting "." peak load shifting " technology is mainly according to adopting storage battery, compressed air and being stored by dump energy in methods such as highland retainings and be used at present.But these methods or because of efficiency not high, or because of the limitation of territorial environment condition, cannot to popularize on a large scale.Hydrogen Energy is pollution-free and energy conversion efficiency is high (reaching as high as 80%), also mutually can transform with electric energy and not be subject to region and environmental limit, if a kind of electric energy-Hydrogen Energy conversion and storing technology of convenience and high-efficiency therefore can be developed, the needs of all kinds of electric power system " peak load shifting " can be widely used in.Be necessary to develop a kind of energy storage energy supply integral system based on Hydrogen Energy for this reason.
We think that system can realize electric energy by following electrochemical reaction and Hydrogen Energy transforms mutually and the storage of energy and supply,

2o (2)
Wherein electrolytic hydrogenation reaction (1) is directly to containing unsaturated bond organic molecule hydrogenation by brine electrolysis, its principle can be illustrated by Fig. 1, anode and the negative electrode that therefrom can find out electrolytic cell are water and aromatic ring molecular respectively, when water is electrolyzed, anode water is decomposed into oxygen and proton, proton by electrolyte diffusion to negative electrode, the hydrogen atom forming ADSORPTION STATE directly and aromatic ring molecular react, make aromatic ring molecular hydrogenation.Be that Hydrogen Energy is stored in hydrogenated aromatic toroidal molecule thus by electric energy conversion.
The principle of above-mentioned electric discharge dehydrogenation reaction (2) as shown in Figure 2, aromatic rings hydrogenation molecule directly generates aromatic ring molecular and proton in the anode generation incomplete oxidation dehydrogenation electric discharge of battery, wherein by electrolyte diffusion to negative electrode, negative electrode reacts with oxygen generation water.Thus the Hydrogen Energy be stored in hydrogenated aromatic toroidal molecule is changed into electric energy.Be not difficult to find out that the product aromatic ring molecular of this process can via reaction (1) hydrogenation and being recycled again.Aromatic ring molecular and hydrogenation molecule thereof serve hydrogen storage material respectively and directly provide the effect of hydrogen source.It can thus be appreciated that the battery that reaction (2) is formed is hydrogenation hydrogen storage material direct fuel cell capable of circulation.Be called R-direct fuel cell (Reversible-direct fuel cell) for simplicity's sake, to be different from the direct fuel cell that existing organic substance is fully oxidized.
Direct fuel cell is fully oxidized, at present mainly alcohol micromolecular direct fuel cell about fuel.The product of its battery is the complete oxidation product C O of alcohol

2o water, is difficult to its electrolysis is reversed into alcohol and is stored with chemical energy by electric energy.Thus can not be used for " peak load shifting " of above-mentioned electric energy.And have not been reported about the R-direct fuel cell of the above-mentioned cell reaction (2) in the present invention.
Electrochemical catalysis hydrogenation about the unsaturated organic molecule of above-mentioned cell reaction (1) has research from the eighties in 20th century, as Karivmiller equals within 1986,1988, to have studied the electrochemical cathode reduction hydrogenation (Karivmiller in aqueous such as phenanthrene, anthracene, E.and R.I.Pacut (1986) .Tetrahedron 42 (8): 2185-2192./Karivmiller, E., R.I.Pacut, et al. (1988) .Topics in Current Chemistry 148:97-130.); Pintauro equals to have carried out verifying (Pintauro, P.N. & J.R.Bontha (1991) .Journal of Applied Electrochemistry 21 (9): 799-804.) in the electrochemical hydrogenation effect of Raney's nickel electrode to aromatic compounds such as benzene for 1991; Jiang, the people such as J.H utilized in 2006 AB5 type alloy to carry hydrogen material and do electrode catalytic materials, also the electrochemical hydrogenation behavior of p-nitrophenyl is studied (Jiang, J.H.and B.L.Wu (2006) .Journal of Applied Electrochemistry36 (7): 733-738.).These researchs are mainly for the basic research of the electrochemical hydrogenation of unsaturated molecule, not with electric energy to Hydrogen Energy change and storage conveniently carrying out dehydrogenation of discharging is target, the temperature conditions of the kind of therefore selected in the present invention aromatic molecules and physical state thereof, certain embodiments and energy loss etc. thereof all have obvious difference with the above-mentioned research molecule reported, do to make a concrete analysis of discussion below to this.
1) molecule must be not volatile liquid under working temperature (< 150 DEG C), instead of solid.Although for some solid dissolvable in certain solvent, solvent can to reduce its concentration at electrode surface, as the volatile liquid such as solid and benzene such as phenanthrene, anthracene just can not as its working media;
2) desorption temperature of hydrogenation molecule should not be too high, and the hydrogenation Molecular Ring hexane desorption temperature as benzene is greater than 300 DEG C, and this, far beyond the working temperature of battery, should not make working media; Meanwhile, if dehydrogenation hydrogenation temperature is high, the serious polarization of galvanic anode thus the energy loss increased in dehydrogenation electric discharge.As desorption temperature is high, the aromatic ring Small molecular such as the benzene that institute's calorific requirement is large just should not make working media.Unstable molecule in addition as vinyl alcohol can not as working media.
Based on above factor, be necessary that researching and developing novel is liquid at least at the working temperature, the organic liquid hydrogen storage material that its hydride desorption temperature is also enough low, the direct fuel cell energy storage energy supplying system providing a kind of structure simple, novel.
